Staffed by four MBH Brothers

Many Anglicans are employed on rubber plantations in Central Province. In 1981 a priest was appointed to go and live at Moreguina, Cape Rodney, and in 1987 a block of land was granted to the Anglican Church by the government. During the 1990s work expanded to cover Anglican families at Upulima, Kupiano, Cocoalands, Bomguina, Manabo, Ianu, Baia, and Kauru. A priest's house was built at Moreguina with an overseas donation, and the bush materials church dedicated to SS Simon & Jude. A church of permanent materials has still to be built. At present the congregation cannot afford a priest's stipend, and so the area is looked after by the MBH Household next door to the priest's house.
